Title says it. And please give me more than "mouse over it" because I am on a smart phone, and dont have a mouse to do that with. Is there a glossary of commonly used abreviations I can look up? I can often figure out the weapon abreviations, but the top three that com to mind that I havent figured out are:
1: TEQ
2: MEQ
3: TAC, referancing something other than tactical marines.

Well it's all in the mouse over thing for the glossary, but like you said can't really check that at the moment. There's a thread here for them down in nuts and bolts as part of suggesting new ones to add in.

For those three though:
1: TEQ = Terminator Equivalent
2: MEQ = Marine Equivalent
3: TAC = Depends on the context you saw it in, it highlights for the tac marines and take all comers.

Thank you so much for the link, bookmarking it now.

Take all Comers makes sense, I recently read that article and didn't even think of it, thanks again.
